I found a SKX007 online in a forum for only $60.00 shipped....no bracelet (just a Nato) but I've got plenty of bracelets....why the heck did it take me so long? Should be here tomorrow or the next day...I'll post some decent pics then. Seller's photo:

Congratulations!
I've been able to handle a few of them and they are almost the perfect watch. I don't have one but I do have my 6309s and 7002s to fill that gap.

That will look good on an oyster bracelet. But my guess is...you have a strap in mind! Congrats they are a great watch! Mine says hello!

Great buy! I've had the 007 on my WTB list for quite some time now, not sure why I've been so hesitant. I can tell you, I have my eye on one right now...and have been in contact with the seller. :grrr:

I love the 007. It is like having the culmination of Seiko cushion case history on your wrist. I like it best on nato, as I feel it really brings out the curves. It looks great on everything though. Very tough and versatile.

Congrats! They are an amazing watch, especially given their meager cost.
Every WIS should own one at least once!

every collection should have one.
love em.
bought my dad one (he is a big $ watches kinda guy) and it didn't take him long to realize how awesome they are as he now wears it much more then any of his other big $ watches.
an honest watch that makes no excuses for what it is.

I bought a 007 & 009 about the same time got them for < $50 each as they were both advertised as having a stripped case tube. I later determined that is was actually the crown in both of them that was at fault.
I purchased two crowns (BTW these are difficult to source) at ~27 each and the watches are perfect. I later sold the 009 at a profit. They are great watches, I have also have an 7002
